How Long Does Juvederm Ultra Plus Last in Lips?

In my practice we’ve gotten away from using Juvederm Ultra Plus in the lips. It tends to have a higher incidence of clumping and other irregularities when used in the lips compared to a product such as Restylane. Restylane is now the only hyaluronic acid filler available which is FDA approved for use in the lips. 

 

Hi and thank you for your question! While individual results may vary, Juvederm Ultra Plus usually last for up to a year in lips. For longer lasting results, you can try Voluma which typically lasts for up to 2 years. I hope it helps and good luck!

Juvederm Ultra Plus is a thick filler that normally is not used in the lips due to the likelihood of lumps. Restylane and Juvederm are better choices for placing filler in the lips. Restylane and Juvederm usually last anywhere from 6-9 months in the lips.

Juvederm lasts 6-9 months when used for lip enhancement, although it can be metabolized faster by some patients. It can also last longer!

The length of time that Jeuvederm lasts depends on a number of factors such as location it is placed, the technique, type of Jeuvederm (e.g. Jeuvederm vs Jeuvederm Plus vs Jeuvederm Ultra) and other factors such as underlying medical conditions. For example when placed in muscle for lip augmentation (an off label FDA usage) it does not last as long perhaps 6-8 months. In the cheeks it usually lasts for 6-12 months

I would agree that Juvederm lasts 6-12 months when used for lip enhancement. I also think that Juvederm Ultra Plus produces fuller lips and lasts longer than Juvederm Ultra when used for lip enhancement. Compared with other hyaluronic acid fillers, Juvederm does exhibit nice staying power in the lips. The result of subsequent injections seems to be cumulative in some respect. Patients who have had two or three treatments (which have not necessarily been closely spaced) often see prolonged / progressive results that may last 18-24 months without the need for additional fill.

Juvederm is my choice for lip enhancement. Juvederm Ultra is probably a bit easier to work with and provides a more natural result, when compared to Ultra Plus which tends to provide more (excessive) volume when used in the lips.

Juvederm Ultra Plus lasts up to 12 months. As you may already know, this is the slightly more viscous formulation compared with 8% cross linking compared to Juvederm Ultra which only has 6%. Juvederm Ultra only lasts about 6-9 months. 

Thank you for your question. Juvederm Ultra Plus is not recommended for use in the lips as it is a think filler that tends cause a lot of lumps. The best fillers for the lips are Restylane and Juvederm and typically lasts 6-12 months. I recommend having a consultation with an expert injector to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!

Hi, 
Thanks for the question!
Juvederm Ultra Plus lasts around 9 months to a year. There are other fillers out there that are known to last a little longer such as Volbella, Voluma, Vollure that can last 1 to 1 1/2 years. I recommend contacting a cosmetic surgeon near you for a consultation!
Hope this is helpful

Thank you for your question. Juvederm is a good
option for lip augmentation. Juvederm Ultra Plus produces fuller lips which can
last from 6-12 months. Hope this helps.
